Further acts of Madness

I was finishing up the Pirate Sloops that I had offered to cut for anyone wishing to have one when I sneezed  as I was cutting one of the hulls. This caused my hand to slip and cut a large notch ion the bows of the hull. I put it to the side as I completed the rest of the work. Not wanting to throw away an otherwise OK hull I sat and contemplated what could be done to save the ship. I decided on a narrower shape as that would remove some of the width and, with it, the unwanted notch. What emerged was a sleek narrow hull. In my usual manner I just started cutting foam until I had something that looked likely.

This is what emerged.




I really gotta stop this kind of thing!

    Your process seems to work wonderfully.

    1. Thank you for your kind words, Accident and Boredom seem to be my Muses.

      I had no intentions on a galleon and have no idea what I will do with it when finished!
